GIMP does not allow saving images as PNG
GIMP version: 2.8.22
Operating System: Linux
Package: gentoo ebuild
Description of the bug
Trying to save the image, GIMP only presents me with the xcf and some other strange, obviously non-image formats. There is no option to save as PNG, JPEG, or any other popular image format. When opting for export instead, the image stays marked as unsaved.
Reproduction
Is the bug reproducible? Always
Reproduction steps:
- Open / Create image
- Choose File->Save
…
Expected result:
The save option should contain all image formats, not just XCF. Or when exporting instead, the image should be marked as saved.
Actual result:
Only XCF is available. When exporting, the image is still considered unsaved.
Additional information
If you create an image editor targeted for those who actualy know what XCF is and how to use it, then your users definitely know that PNG or JPEG is going to be a lossy format. Yes, we know it. Still we would prefer all-in-one save option instead of a decision: export or save?
